Thanks for the reply Tom. Got the beads through this site: http://hcmcigarbeads.com/... Michael (CigarNut). The reason I say a leak is cuz the RH in my basement where my cigars are is actually higher. I don't see how a leak is possible though. That was part of the reason I went with a fridgador... figured that was a 'sealed' as you could get. I calibrated with a 75.5% Boveda kit. My cigars were overhumified prior... that's part of the reason I got these beads... had different ones before that didn't seem to be cutting it. Maybe it's just not enough time?
